Twix bars are a sweet and salty dessert that is sure to be a crowd pleaser!
These bars have been one of my favorite desserts for as long as I can remember so I am so excited to share the recipe with everyone! I am not sure why they are called twix bars because they are not really like a twix but hey…twix bars are delicious…these bars are delicious…so we’re just going with it!
These bars are layered with a buttery caramely mixture and Club crackers. The caramel mixture is made of butter, milk, sugar, and graham cracker crumbs. This mixture is so good on its own, I may or may not have been licking it off the spoon as I assembled these bars.
These bars are topped with a peanut butter chocolate frosting that is to DIE for. It has chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and peanut butter. It tops these sweet and salty bars off perfectly!
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 14 graham cracker sheets)
- 1 and ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 rolls of Club crackers
- 1 cup peanut butter
- ⅔ cup chocolate chips
- ⅔ cup butterscotch chips
- In a medium sized saucepan, combine first five ingredients. Heat on medium high heat and boil for five minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- Line the bottom of a 13x9 pan with Club crackers. Pour half of the caramel mixture over the crackers. Add another layer of crackers over the caramel mixture. Pour the remaining caramel mixture over the crackers. Add a final layer of crackers on the top.
- In a microwave safe bowl, combine the peanut butter, chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips. Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until melted and smooth. Spread evenly over the bars.
- Refrigerate bars for at least three hours, or until completely cooled. Bars can be stored in an air tight container for up to two weeks.
Oh my! These homemade twix are the key to my heart for sure!
I agree! Love these!
I am bowing down to you. This is just incredible! The butterscotch, ohhh the butterscotch!!
Yummy!
These look amazing and I love the idea of using Club crackers instead of making a shortbread crust to save time! I can’t wait to try them. Your photo has me drooling! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, you’ll love them!
